The sous-vided chicken gizzards ended up as yakitori and served with miso eggplant and jasmine rice. #cooking #food #grilling #yakitori #chicken #gizzards
I've never cooked chicken gizzards in my life but for some reason I bought some today ($1.59/lb!). They are going to sous vide overnight and become tender(ish) ... but what on earth should I do with them tomorrow? Please, recipe Gods, give me some hints. #sousvide #chicken #gizzards #recipe #birds #cooking #recipes #food #ventriculus
Quartz-Gobbling Worms Are Weathering Earth’s Soils

New research in mineral weathering shows that earthworms may be an important contributor to Earth’s weathering cycle.

Barn Owls usually swallow their prey whole, and their food passes into their gizzard. Soft tissue, such as muscle, fat, and internal organs are easily processed, but the digestive acids of owls are too weak to dissolve tougher material, such as bones, fur, feathers, teeth, and claws. The gizzard compacts these leftovers into a tight pellet that the owl regurgitates.
